SILVIUS – A1049492

***GONE 09/02/15***SILVIUS is a victim of the ‘mad trapper’ who, instead of TNR grabs cats and brings the to ACC. Did they think they were doing he, and his little sister NELLIE a favor by bringing them into this place? Well, what they have done is shove poor SILVIUS into a position of being killed because he is ‘RESCUE ONLY’. In a perfect world, SILVIUS would be ‘worked with’ and a barn home would be found for him after he was neutered, tipped and vaccinated. SILVIUS with time might even come around and be a friendly sweet guy. But we can’t ask ACC to do this-they won’t. You need to do this. A rescue will work with you, but you need to foster. Now, bear in mind, this isnt’ a ‘tough’ or vicious’ cat, just a very scared one and he’s only a year old. With some patience and lots of understanding that he’s only a little guy, SILVIUS could turn into the sweetest boy there is-it happens! But it won’t unless someone saves this boys life! Would you save this little guy from death?

09/01/2015 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – NH ONLY
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Reaction to assessor: Silvius looks tense in his cage whenm approached by the assessor. Reaction to door opening: Silvius remains crouched down at the back of the cage, alert with a direct stare. Reaction to touch: Silvius does not allow the stroke, panics, and attempts to escape his cage. Placement determination: NH ONLY Silvius is displaying behaviors that preclude placement in the adoptions room. He is extremely fearful in the shelter environment and does not currently tolerate petting. The behavior department feels that placement with a New Hope Partner is the best option at this time.
